WELCOME IAN

Ian is the new Loyalty drummer. In his own words "I have been a drummer for many years, and I live just in a small town near Bolton. I have played in various bands, mostly punk and oi ! and have started my own music promotion company, CYJ Promotions".

The full band line-up is now: Steve (Vocals/Bass), Wantage Steve (Guitar), Ian (Drums) click here for full details

Rehearsals will start soon, and first priority is to record a new CD, this time a full album of 12 songs. This will again be released on our own 'Loyal Records' label. Once the CD is finished we will be looking to play some gigs again.

AND WELCOME JON

We are also pleased to welcome on board Jon, a good mate of the band who will be putting his skills to good use by helping out with the website, recording, and other technical stuff. Loyalty have long needed someone on the technical side so it's great to have Jon involved.

UPDATE...4 October 2008

NEW DRUMMER

We are sorry to report that Andy has resigned from the band. Due to his many other commitments he is no longer able to find the time, but he leaves with our thanks and best wishes. His quality drumming on the 'Take No Prisoners' CD really helped the band move up a level. He also played with the band at two excellent gigs in Spain and Italy.

We have also decided to release Rich so will now proceed with just the one drummer for the forseeable future. We have already made a very good appointment and the new drummer will be announced on this website shortly.

UPDATE...1 August 2008

We now have copies of the Never Say Die compilation CD, Loyalty 1999 iron on patches, and a few copies of Retaliator's 7" 2002 single 'Patriotic Alcoholics' which featured Steve Loyalty on rhythm guitar.

UPDATE ..12 May 2008

NO MORE INTERVIEWS

Loyalty will not be doing anymore interviews in the near future.We respect all fanzines and websites and appreciate all the good work that they do for the scene, but after completing a dozen or more interviews since the band reformed two years ago we feel that there is nothing more to be said at this stage, and we need to free up some time to take the band forward again. We will make another announcement on this website when we are ready to start doing interviews again.

Thanks alot for your interest and support

Steve, Loyalty
